Abstract
Grails is a full-stack web application framework for the Java Enterprise
platform.
It is based on the concepts of 'convention over configuration' and 'don't repeat
yourself'. Grails achieves these goals by leveraging the power of Groovy - a
language that complements Java with highly dynamic features.
Unlike other modern frameworks, Grails fully integrates with the Java Enterprise
platform and builds on well-known industry standards like Spring, Hibernate, and
Quartz. Not only does Grails protect your investment in the Java platform in
terms of technology, it also protects your investment in Java knowledge since
Grails is built from ground up with the perspective of a Java developer in
mind.
This lab starts with a blank page and demonstrates the creation of a full-blown
Java Enterprise web application in a live coding session. You will experience
the evolution of the domain model, validation constraints, view and controller
logic, transparent database access, interactive development and automatic
testing until we finally deploy the application as a war file into any
JEE-compliant server.
See how Grails brings fun and coolness back to Java Enterprise programming.
